File guide - print specs
Print material includes:
-
All print files should be in color profile adobeRGB
​
-
All text print should be saved as a photo or vectorised to ensure the font won’t be replaced (1)
​
-
Images should have a resolution of approx. 150 ppi to get highest quality print on fabric. Higher than 150 ppi will not result in better print-quality - only heavier files. Lower than 150 ppi might affect the sharpness of the print.
​
-
Print width & height should be defined and the digital print file should have the same measurements/scale as the wanted print result. (2) (3)
​
-
Make sure that AOP files are flawlessly repeatable. (4)
